Hello gofishmarko No it's very simple those floating ships weigh many tons or tonnes as they say over there. They are NEVER lighter just because they they seem to have a good relationship with the water. Optical illusion !!!
Ships plus Water and the OVERALL Weight is increasing all the time !!
I should know you can guess my profession afore I retired back home !

I stood on the back porch, there was nobody home
I was stunned and amazed, my childhood memories
Slowly swirled past, like the wind in the trees"
